About Event
By making box office history, Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie have shown the consumeristic potential of girlhood, nostalgia and pink.
In this Network Capital Salon, we will discuss the economics and politics of Barbie and see what it says about late stage capitalism and world building. We will also look at ironic self-depreciation as a branding strategy — because if you call yourself out, what options do others have?
We also discuss Network Capital’s feature on Barbie and Existentialism in Vogue.
